Are you taking a PPI like Nexium? I had gas and liquid bowels but just once a day, not all the time. Feel better!

I am right behind you and feeling great too. I got the Walgreens complete multivitamin/multi mineral liquid (10 bucks) because I still can't take pills. I walked around downtown yesterday, took the kids to see santa at the mall. Knock on wood I feel wonderful too.

I did also get a bit of diarrhea but for only 2 days. I been drinking orange low carb gatorade and that seems to have stopped it.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
